But seriously this is getting ridiculous. It was due for 2021. That got delayed. Then it was set for 2022 in the Holiday Quarter. And now it's 2023?? What's next 2024? What could demand so much attention that you need to push this game twice?141@HogwartsLegacy Ok I was ok with the first one. But seriously this is getting ridiculous. It was due for 2021.

What could demand so much attention that you need to push this game twice?As expected, the news of another delay has not sat well with many Potterheads who have been waiting for years to play the game. Reactions from them swiftly followed, and social media was replete with anger and disappointment at the decision.One noted that the game looked perfectly presentable in the gameplay leak in 2018 and that they were confounded by how WB Games Avalanche has missed two release windows ever since.The Master Poop@TheMasterPoop@HogwartsLegacy The leaked teaser, where the game looked perfectly presentable, came out in 2018, since then you've given us two release windows that have failed to be meet. Nobody wants a broken game but this is taking the piss a bit.24612@HogwartsLegacy The leaked teaser, where the game looked perfectly presentable, came out in 2018, since then you've given us two release windows that have failed to be meet.

Another stated that developers should not announce release dates if they cannot meet them.JJS@Joshua02456582@imthatguysteven @HogwartsLegacy Point is they could have said this a month ago and saved the speculation im sure they would have had the same answer in July or by near the end of it instead of building hype train knowing that it's most probably not gonna happen when it was meant to6@imthatguysteven @HogwartsLegacy Point is they could have said this a month ago and saved the speculation im sure they would have had the same answer in July or by near the end of it instead of building hype train knowing that it's most probably not gonna happen when it was meant toMal 🕶@TheDarthMal@HogwartsLegacy Stop announcing release dates if you can’t meet the mark! This is such a bad trend in modern games.86621@HogwartsLegacy Stop announcing release dates if you can’t meet the mark! This is such a bad trend in modern games.Hagrid Guck@JJMildew@TheDarthMal @HogwartsLegacy Agreed. All the others in your replies are defending them, because they themselves lack accountability as well. I’d rather be told a game is coming out 3 years later instead of being told this year and it gets delayed. We can’t see into the devs minds, their word is all we go off6@TheDarthMal @HogwartsLegacy Agreed.

We can’t see into the devs minds, their word is all we go offThey claimed that the developers lacked accountability if they kept posting release periods they could not abide by. @JJMildew commented that they would instead be told that the game is coming out three years later than being told this year and see it repeatedly getting delayed.Daniel@CujohX@brandongMUFC @HogwartsLegacy cyberpunk was delayed a crazy amount of times and still ended up shit19@brandongMUFC @HogwartsLegacy cyberpunk was delayed a crazy amount of times and still ended up shitDaniel@CujohX@brandongMUFC @HogwartsLegacy they need to stop giving out rushed releases dates in general, one of the reason I admire the cod developers because they always knew when the game was ready. and didn't put out unrealistic dates that couldn't be met. the date should be announced 3/4 months before release imo.2@brandongMUFC @HogwartsLegacy they need to stop giving out rushed releases dates in general, one of the reason I admire the cod developers because they always knew when the game was ready. and didn't put out unrealistic dates that couldn't be met. the date should be announced 3/4 months before release imo.Melcor@Melcor85089999@agayplays @HogwartsLegacy Because it's not a delay but multiple ones, and multiple delays mean that the game isn't having a good development cycle. 2077 had 4 delays and still ended up shit. Games that aren't delayed mean that they had a stable development cycle. 2 years of delay like wtf.68@agayplays @HogwartsLegacy Because it's not a delay but multiple ones, and multiple delays mean that the game isn't having a good development cycle. 2077 had 4 delays and still ended up shit.

What would you rather? Wait a couple extra months or deal with a buggy mess on release.I say give them the time they need to get it right.34@HogwartsLegacy Everyone complaining about the date needs to chill.

One would also expect the developers to share new clips and information regarding the title over the next few months rather than radio silent after the latest announcement.
